BUSINESS FAILURE
Is Frequently Caused by the Worry
Attendant On Dyspepsia.
If vou would win in the Battle of Life
you must have a clear brain, keen
senses, perfect vigor, shrewdness, en
ergy and ambition.
Dyspepsia kills these needful quali
ties. You can't succeed if you are con
stantly tortured by dyspepsia or indi
gestion. But 3'ou can get rid of dys
pepsia, indigestion, biliousness, soar
stomach, or any other ailment of stom
ach or digestive organs by simply
taking one or two of Dodd's Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal.
With a perfect digestion go a strong.
healthy body, a clear, capable brain,

Dyspepsia Tablets ensure all these.
'Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets have nev
er failed to cure any or all of the dis
eases named when they have been
fairly tried. They cannot fail.
Dr. K. B. Strong, New York City,
writing in the American Journal of

possibly be more efficacious though it

Hoar referred to Beveridse's state'

country. This he denied, and pointed
out that In Oecemher. i:i.s. the presi
dent had sen a nrocl.iination to Ceu

pinos. Ceneral Otis returned the proc
lamation with J lie statement that alter
full consideration of tlie terms "sov
ereijiity." "rifilit of cession." etc.. lie
was convinced they were calculated to
cause an immediate outbreak of hos
tilities. (Ceneral Otis amended the pro
clamation by making the statement:
"I am convinced that it is the inten
tion of tthe government of the I'nited
States to seek tlie establishment of the
most lilH'tal government in ihe Philip
pine." This appeared in the proclamation
published to tlie Filipinos, but a copy
of the actual proclamation of the presi
dent fell into the hands of the. I ili-
pino leaders and precipitated hostili
ties. He declared thre had not been a
time when. If Ceneral Otis had been
able to give assurances of independ
ence to tlie Filipinos, tlie war would
not have terminated.
After reading some passages from
official reports Hoar concluded, promis

near future.
UEMIH'K.ITS HAVE A CAT I Si.
Notable Feature of Which Is the P-enene
of a Silver Party Man.
Washington. Jan. In. A well at
tended caucus of the Democratic mem
bers of the house of representatives
was held last night. Newlauds of
Nevada, of the Silver party, was pres
ent by invitation of lih hardsoii. the
Democratic floor leader, for the pur
pose ol presenting a plan for united
let ion liy all of the elements opposed
to the Heiiublicin organization. New
lauds spoke at considerable leugth
concerning the unilication of the ele
ments opposed to the Hlitical party
now m power.
Iu particular he suggested an ad
visory committee of oue member from
each ol the states, the choice lo lie
made from Democrat. Populists, sil
ver Kopublicans. Silver Independents
and in tact all the elements oppos
ing the Jlepublican party. The pur-
Mse f this committee, it was ex
plained, would be to formulate a pol
icy on the more important public
questions, ami thus secure the advan
tage ol muted action. He stated that
his suggestion was merely tentative
and that after a full consideration of
the subject action could be taken at
some luture lime.
The chief interest of the evening
centered in a resolution, offered by
Representative Robertson of Louisi
ana, with, a view to securing "a steer
ing committee" which would have the
power to lormulate Ihe democratic
policy on iuiiHirtaut questions of leg
islation, and requiring that all Demo
crats should stand by the steering
committee's dictum. The resolution
met witli considerable fa vor. but some
of the inlliientlal members urged him
not lo press tlie matter for the pres
ent ninl he consented to withdraw the
resolution until later.

Noted Flnitii' lnl Case Started In Mii hignn
hy Ituker and Halilivin.
Washington. Jan. 10. A record and
brief have been received by the clerk
of the supreme court of the T'nited
States in a case from the supreme court
of Michigan that may have a liearing
on the financial question. It is tin;
ease or Maker vs. italdwiu. in which
F. A Baker, a Michigan lawyer, seeks
to test the i-onstitutionulity of the pro
visions of the Bland-Allison act mak
ing the silver dollar of i'.71.."i grans
pure silver a full and unlimited legal
tender in the payment of all debts.
public or private.
Baker claims that the act of 1-S,:t ps-
tahlishing the gold dollar of J.'t.SJ
grains of pure gold as tbe stand
ard of value Is tlie only
valid act In existence making coined
money a full legal tender, aud that all
contracts since entered into payable
in money without stipulation as to the
kind of money can le settled only in
gold ilollars. or in United States notes
redeemable in gold.
He contends that the Bland-Allison
act Is unconstitutional liecause the
bullion vwlue of the silver dollar at the
date of the passage of that act and
ever since then has been less than the
value of the gold dollar, and that con
gress has "no right under the iiower to
coin money to issue a debased coin and
to make it an unlimited tender where
no provision is made for its redemption
In coin of full value."

physician at Uri.stow. ISuiler -ouuty, iu
u tit of iiisauity killed u ten months
old child of Henry Wearly. of this
place, while making an examination of
it iu Ir. Hohsou's office in this city.
1 lie parents had brotilit the child to
Dr. Hobson's office to le treated for
some trilling ailment, aud before he
had tiuie to attend to it he was called
out. Dr. Appleby was visiting lr. Hob-
son and the latter suggested that Dr.
Appleby should make the necessary ex
amination, which as soon as Dr Hob-
son had left tlie office he proceeded
lo do.
lie took the child in his arms
handled it so roughly that the parents
protested, but to no avail. Suddeulv
he put his tumbs under its chin and
with his lingers on top of its head
crushed its fcice in so that blood
gushed out of its nose and mouth.
Then jumping up he seized the child
ny one root and began swinging it
around his head, resisting all efforts of
the terror-stricken pitretUs to stop
him. it was tu,t until help was gotten
that the chilil was taken from him. It
was quite dead. Dr. Appleby declared
;hat Cod had taken the child.
The insane commission was immedi
ately convened and at midnight Or.
Appleby was on his way to the hos
pital for the insane at Independence.
He siemed to recover his senses later
and said lie knew what lie was doin;
when he killed the child, but could not

Mnn nnd Ilia Smoke.
Eerv utile while you read that a
man iHi years old and still hale and
heartv has smoked all his life, but it;
is nevertheless a fact that smoking is
very injurious. Men should be ashamed
that ihey are unable to quit the habit.
Tliis is not written by a man who has
no desire to smoke, but by u man who
smokes a gro::t deal, has tried several
times to quit and couldn't do it.
When you find a boy who is pale and
sick from his first smoke, remember
that his father and his grandfather
are to blame. It will take thousands'
of years to reform the world if we be
gin now. A boy is as certain to look
for a pipe as he is to look for a sweet
heart. His father was guilty of both
